Haha. Well, I hope you get it worked out. Have you used PopOS before?

Am I understanding this right? It’s Linux installed to a remote server and then streamed to the desktop?

Windows 2000 was the best (and last good) version.

I loved BeOS. It was great.

People having problems on Tumbleweed almost always seem to be using Nvidia, KDE, and/or Wayland. That’s what I’ve noticed based on official forum threads, anyway.

I really want one of these.

That’s beautiful. Card backs?

I’ve never been into vector graphics, but I had reason to use Inkscape recently, and I was actually surprised by how easy to use it was and how much the UI made sense.

I’ve got things that need to run periodically set up in crontab, and create menu launchers for things that I run as needed.

My distro struggles despite being one of the more widely-used and known. There are never enough people to do everything that needs to be done. And I see constantly that projects I care about don’t have enough help to fix bugs, test, or continue development. FOSS is a community effort. Not every user needs to be a professional, but everyone should learn enough about how a computer works to be able to contribute in some way. Everything being done by a few frustrated, overworked people isn’t healthy or sustainable.

FOSS software needs to be maintained by the user base to survive. Not enough people contributing is a big problem for many, if not most, open source projects, including the big names. If not enough people care enough to learn, the project dies out and disappears.

Very true! Good points.

After years of using Linux, the last time I used Vim, I remembered for the first time how to go into command mode, exit, and save the file I was editing without looking anything up.

I liked Snaps and Flatpaks fine when I first started using Linux, and the distro I was on treated them the same as software in the repo, but I eventually started to avoid them because of the space they take up, and because I got tired of constantly having to mess around with permissions to try to get things working. Now, if something isn’t available in rpm, I use AppImage or a tarball, or compile it myself.

You can edit system files with a GUI text editor by opening the containing folder as root in a GUI file manager, then opening the file you want to edit from there.

Personally, I enjoy having multiple options and being able to choose what meets my needs best.

Not to mention prion diseases.
